“Authentic Tunisian Experience with Exceptional Hospitality”
We had a wonderful stay and truly appreciated the warm welcome and kindness of the staff. The property is located inside a traditional Tunisian house, which made the experience feel very authentic and immersive. Chama welcomed us with typical local biscuits and water, which was such a thoughtful gesture. The room was very spacious, the bed was comfortable, and everything was extremely clean. The bathroom was also large, very well maintained, and spotless. The location is good, close to small local shops and within walking distance of the Medina. There is also convenient parking available on the street near the property. Chama was incredibly kind and generous throughout our stay. She even offered us a delicious and abundant homemade breakfast, although it was not originally included. During our stay, the city experienced a water outage due to a problem with the public water distribution system. Even though this issue was completely outside of her control, Chama did everything possible to support us. Fortunately, the house had a well, and she kindly heated water for us to shower and provided water for the bathroom and toilet whenever needed. She was extremely apologetic, caring, and always available to help. We truly appreciated all her efforts and her exceptional hospitality.

“A beautiful historic house full of charm and soul”
A truly special and authentic place with a lot of history and charm. The house is around 200 years old, and you can feel the soul of the place in every detail. I especially loved how beautifully the traditional architecture, wooden ceilings, blue doors, and artistic elements have been preserved. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming. It was wonderful to hear that she was even born in this house and has kept its original beauty alive. As someone who loves places with history and character, I felt very comfortable here. The room was officially registered, clean, cozy, and full of atmosphere. The lovely courtyard with plants made the stay even more special. A beautiful experience in Kairouan that I will remember fondly.

Excellent host, very easy to communicate and speaks very well English. She gives us a warm welcoming and the bnb has a great, homey vibe. The cat is also cute. The breakfast is great - although it does not come with any hot food (but it does have fresh coffee and tea!), it provides a great variety of food. The bread and the homemade jam are unforgettable.

“Very good”
Located at walking distance from the medina of Kairouan. Despite being in a busy city, the house is located in a quiet street off the main road. The cosy courtyard makes it feel like an oasis. Lovely and communicative host. Small but comfortable room.

“Fantastic!”
We stayed here for one night and absolutely loved it. Chama is incredibly kind and welcoming, she gave us great tips about the area and you can really feel she has a good heart. She also takes care of many lovely cats in the neighborhood, and the blind cat living with her is simply wonderful. The room was cozy and authentic, everything was perfectly in order. In the morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast with homemade and local products. A truly warm and special place, highly recommended!

“A little jewel in Kairouan”
The house is a little jewel in Kairouan, taken care of with love. There is a beautiful inside garden where the lovely host is happy to talk with you and give you advice to visit the city. We loved how particular the room was.

“Beautiful and impeccably clean guesthouse”
Our stay at this authentic guesthouse was like a journey back in time! The charming, old-world ambiance combined with modern comforts made it a truly unique experience. Chama, the host, was exceptionally welcoming and made us feel right at home. We also enjoyed a delicious breakfast, and spending time with her was such a pleasure. On top of that, the price-quality ratio was excellent. This is truly a destination worth visiting and revisiting!
